All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

It was really frustrating to watch us fail on 3rd/4th and shorts with a back like Jackson when the Eagles convert them w/ a scat back like McCoy.
This just in...We've been missing our starting, and backup LTs for the past few weeks now.
And doesn't Freddy have better stats this season then McCoy?

"Coach Levy is one of the most inspirational people that I have ever known."
***Thurman Thomas.***
"You're not going to find a more classier, down-to-Earth person away from the field than Marv Levy. He's a guy who's pretty much made me what I am today as far as a professional player and a person."

Freddy Jackson shows up and plays hard and will get paid. Lardass Jason Peters blew off his team and teammates and deserved to get shipped out of town. We got Wood and Levitre because of that trade and I think we made out better. Ask any Philly fan if they think Peters is worth $11M/yr and they would all say no. Look at his entire tenure in Philly, not one play.

He has looked like a road grader tonight. God dammit. He was a piece of **** when he was here though. Instead of showing up and acting like a man. He acted like a child and the Bills shipped him out. I was also told the Bills offered him 9.5 million and he turned it down. I still say ***K HIM.
Can't complain with what we got for him though, Woods and Levitre because of the extra 3rd. Still, could you imagine if we took Mack at 11, kept Peters, and took Levitre instead of Byrd.
He is a great talent when he wants to play. He has had a hard time keeping his weight under control in Phily after getting paid. It would be nice to have a talent like him on the roster but at the end of the day he wanted out. We ended up with Eric Wood in return which isn't that bad. It worked out for both teams.
If you are 100% sure Nix would have gotten somthing done it will be interesting to see what happens with Pears, Urbik and Bell since they are all UFA's at the end of the season. Next year it will be time to extend Wood and Levitre.

There is a big difference between knowing that you have to keep a franchise LT who is 26 years old and signing a RG or RT that you signed off the street the year before and a LT no one is sure about and oft-injured.
IMO, there is no way Nix would have allowed a talented, road-grating LT like Peters leave. A lot of players in the NFL have had disputes with their teams and still signed contracts and continued to play for them.

If you are right then he will resign Wood and Levitre. At this point that is what is important to me, Peters has been gone for years at this point. Nix will get his chance to prove your theory.

As others have said the Bills got good value for Peters. I would not trade Wood & Levitre for him & I doubt many Bills fans would.
